"despite being one of the buggiest games I've played in years"
Well people still have to buy it to experience the bugs, right?

@Franky Wid
I had no control issues with 2008's Alone in the Dark like everyone else had, but that didn't have a online mode for me to be a beast on. :(

@Sir Tobbii
Right, but it probably suffered from one of the worst word of mouth campaigns I've ever seen, in addition to being one of the worst reviewed games of 2012 so far.
@Franky
Us big-handed folk have issues :-(

I don't want it that high, I don't want Silent Hill to get the Resident Evil boom so Konami thinks "Let's make this as big as COD!" like Capcom did.

Glad Kid Icarus is doing well, probably the best handheld game I've played (not counting srpgs which have their own special place in my heart) and I've been playing on them since the orignal gameboy. Just everything about the game feels great and the insane amount of content and unlockables has kept me going. I also find the game genuinely charming and the dialogue and 4th wall breaking hilarious. Plus it seems to randomly change when you replay levels in certain segments which keeps things interesting.
I've honestly had no issues with the controls and enjoy the layout. I will say some of longer chapters had my hand sore by the end but it was fine within a few minutes. Maybe I'm just so used to Monster Hunter psp/Metroid Prime Hunters that it doesn't bother me.
Really hope the rubbish ORC doesn't give Capcom any ideas of where to take the franchise after 6. In It's first week it sold more than Revelations has to date :/ Sure ORC is on two old platforms with a bigger market share but It's still disheartening.

Once I changed the default controls in Kid Icarus, its been a lot easier to control. Control with joystick, aim with a,b,x,y and shoot with R. Pretty much like the old N64 times when you aimed with the C buttons.
I was disappointed when I saw the review of the game but I'm glad I still tried it by myself.

The North American 3DS hardware and software sales are still being decimated by their Japan numbers. Unsurprising, since Japan has almost twice as much high quality games. Get on the ball, NoA!
I wonder how the Vita is doing stateside. My guess is not well unless I missed something, as Sony would be trumpeting that fact from the highest mountain were it selling well. I don't think I've even seen them talk about units shipped.
I haven't had any problems with KI controls either. ^_^;
Those having problems seem to be a minority of the player base, going on what I've seen on various forums.

Sony tends to be vague even when they do amazing. According to neogaf the Vita sold over 200,000 vitas.

Creamsuger's post "Vita passed 200k, but less than 3DS." Obviously take it with a grain of salt but apparently he has the ndp date as verified by admins and mods there. You also have to audition for neogaf so you can't just come in talking nonsense.

I'm surprised the Wii is still selling that many units; I thought everyone and their mother had two.
Maybe this bodes well for the Wii U... but people who just bought a "new" Nintendo system probably won't be too keen on buying another in less than a year...

If you have problems with the Kid Icarus: Uprising controls, you're cack-handed... They took me all of 30 seconds to get used to...
I kick ass at the game actually, wagering a decent amount of hearts.
I just literally can't magically fix the pain in my hands, so I can't play it for hours, like every other game.

Pretty much one of the best games I've experienced. I use the d-pad + circle pad control scheme, because I can't do it the other way.
Glad Kid Icarus is doing well. I can't believe MLB 2k12 is on that list though, at least the show is well above it, it's a way better title.
I'm still surprised people are having trouble with Kid Icarus' controls. I got used to them in ~4 chapters. I mean, it's like Metroid Prime Hunters or The World Ends With You.
And I have big hands.
Maybe it's the Nyko Power Pak+?
Anyway, glad to see it's doing well. My damn near favorite Nintendo AND handheld game in years.

Strange, this reminds me when I used to see two arguments about gamepads on forums:
"I prefer the 360 controller because I have big hands" and;
"I prefer the Dualshock 3 because I have big hands"
@Chris Carter So what do you think causes the pain? Is that from holding the 3DS in one hand?

I actually ended up getting the game even though I wasn't looking forward to it, and dare I say it was the smartest purchase decision I've done all year, freaking amazing game.

"Us big-handed folk have issues :-("
<- Big Hands; no issues.
Granted, it took me a little while to get used to the ground controls, but by chapter 4 I was a pro.
Seriously, my hands are huge. I can wrap my hand around the 3DS and touch my middle finger with my thumb.

I fucking love Kid Icarus Uprising. For all the shit the controls get, I don't see it working anyway else. They will NOT be quick enough for the frantic action. Killing major ass online. Addicted to Light vs Dark.
I LOVE KI:Uprising. I went into the game a bit apprehensive since I was wary of the controls after Jim's review but about 20 minutes into the game I was hooked and the controls felt second nature to me even with my fat hands.
Dat Chapter 18...hhnnnggg.

That's a decent amount of Wii systems sold. I'd like to think that it's because the company is finally bringing over many of the games we've been missing, but perhaps that's naive. Hopefully the WiiU can ride that wave with a good software line-up announcement.
